Lovesong Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again
[Verse 2]
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again
[Chorus]
However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you
[Interlude]
(Fly me to the moon)
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again
[Chorus]
However far away
I will always love you
However long I stay
I will always love you
Whatever words I say
I will always love you
I will always love you
